[1.0.1] Windows: problems with libs folder when running a .exe made with Launch4J

answered on stack overflow ;-)

BTW: version 1.1.0 will have options, to create a fat jar, that can be run by just double clicking and contains everything including the images.

Dear @RaiMan (raimund-hocke) I just added sikuli-java.jar to Referenced Libraries you mentioned in stack overflow.

Then I Set a JVM option -Dsikuli.Debug=3 from Launch4j JVM options list under JRE tab.

But still same error occurred.

If you do not have any idea about the error cause or solution, run again
with a Debug level of 3. You might paste the output to the Q&A board.

In Launch4j how can i set the Environment variable.

the structure off the exe do not fit, to what a SikuliX jar expects.
So this will not work with 1.0.1

I will have a look at it together with version 1.1.0

I just had a look at Launch4J: I will not support this for SikuliX.

Version 1.1.0 will have a feature, to wrap an app together with everything needed including images into a jar, that can be run by simply double-clicking.

Thank you for your kind reply RaiMan (raimund-hocke) . Yeah launch4J not support for sikuli version 1.0.1 . Then I tried exe4J(Executable .EXE creating tool) first time that exe working properly but after that it doesn't work. Following errors occurred.

--- just do, what it is saying: logout/login or even restart

-- I download the new sikuli-setup
delete everything from previous trials (except sikuli-setup.jar) and run setup again.
